Agricultural Products Division of BASF has carried a research and confirmed that LabLogic Systems’ Beta-RAM 5 radio-detector have superior performance, when used in the Active Counting Mode (ACM).BASF is one of world’s leading chemical company, was founded by Engelhorn in April 6th 1865, lies in Mannheim Germany, under name Badische Anilin- & Soda-Fabrik. Now BASF has about 110,000 employees, six Verbund sites, and almost countries in the*world get benefit of this company.
Keith Hall (LabLogic’s Laura chromatography system-product manager) said that radio-detector sensitivity very crucial in shortening procedures of processing in some kinds of 14C studies. He responsible to controls the Beta-RAM. BASF find how Beta-RAM 5 work in ACM mode equipped through a liquid cell.
Despite, Beta-RAM 5 give satisfaction in Standard Mode for almost all of routine work, but in ACM difficult cases, Beta-RAM 5 generates chromatograms with high value against surrounding noise, this cases equate with a superior signal to ratio of noise and has better improvement than Limit Of Detection (LOD).
ACM system monitoring run conditions and always optimizes them actively and ensuring that performance was optimal in term of signal to treat resolution and ratio of noise at all time.
Dr Huns Nejad (senior of research associate at the BASF Agricultural Products Division at Research Triangle Park, North Carolina) describes about company’s experience of Beta-RAM 5 with ACM, said that they were interested to determine
Sensitivity of instrument with particular reference, and have found different impression when under wide range of different conditions. He also said that studies soil and water either direct or inject concentration onto column, at many different rates from 1109 to 63231 dpm.
So, conclusion of the research is LabLogic Systems’ Beta-RAM 5 radio-detector have superior performance, when used in the Active Counting Mode (ACM), and has superior signal to ratio of noise and enhanced Limit Of Detection.
